/* Prevention */
* A vitamin E-rich daily serving of [[spinach]] or a handful of [[almonds]] can fight cancer.
* FRUITS AND VEGETABLES RICH IN CAROTENOIDS : Carrots, yams, sweet potatoes, squash, tomatoes, apricots, beets and all the brightly coloured fruits and vegetables contain vitamin A and lycopene, which have the proven capacity to inhibit the growth of particularly aggressive cancers.
*HERBS AND SPICES : Rosemary, thyme, oregano, [[basil ]] and [[mint ]] are rich in essential oils of the tarpene family which reduce the spread of cancer cells by blocking the enzymes they need to invade neighbouring tissues.
* avoid Oils rich in omega-6 fatty acids (corn, sunflower, safflower, soy).
* Avocados are rich in glutathione, a powerful antioxidant that attacks free radicals. This buttery fruit also supplies more potassium than bananas. And they’re a terrific source of beta-carotene.
